You want to give give Haley credit for scoring 35 points against the Jets that year and racking up 468 yards of offense, in a game that they TRAILED 34-0 at the half?

They were trailing the Giants 34-19 and scored 10 points in garbage time.

Got humiliated by the Pats, scored 7 points that week.

Fell behind 31-7 to the Eagles before they added 13 more points in trash time that week.

Trailed Minnesota 28-0 at the half.

See a pattern here?

Easy to pile up points and yards when defenses back off with a big lead.

you can spin it any way you want to, the fact remains that Haley's offense over the course of a 16-game season ranked 3rd in the NFL in scoring.

you asked what qualifications Haley had as an OC and I provided that for you. just because you don't like the answer doesn't change the fact that Haley's offense in 2008 ranked 3rd in the NFL in scoring.

That's not a qualification. They didn't hire him in 2007 because his offense was 3rd in scoring in 2008.

Learn what the word means first, then talk.

Not spinning anything. I could care less what Haley's team did in garbage time. Apparently you do.

we're discussing what qualifications Haley had in order for the Steelers to hire him besides who his Daddy is, so his 2008 performance as OC for the Cardinals is very relevant.

No, YOU are trying to convince yourself he was hired for his Cardinals work.

He wasn't.

He was hired because of who his Daddy is, and according to the LA Times, he was partially hired because a NEW ENGLAND PATRIOT QB was yelled at by his coach. Which has NOTHING TO DO with Haley's "work".

What kind of idiot would hire a coach based on the actions of ANOTHER TEAM?

I'm not trying to convince myself of anything.

you dared anyone to present evidence of what qualifications Todd Haley had in order to be hired by the Steelers and I presented you with the fact that Todd Haley's offense in 2008 with the Arizona Cardinals while he was the OC there ranked 3rd in the NFL in scoring.

it's just that you are so obtuse and convinced that Haley was only hired because of who his Daddy is that you are not willing to accept facts as they are presented to you because they don't fit into your belief system.

I ignored it because it's pure speculation on your part and really has no relevance to our discussion.

So the LA Times reporting it is speculation, but you claiming Haley was hired because of his Cards work is not?

LOL

The Haley's are already trying to angle for Tomlin's job. Every interview Daddy gives he makes sure to tell everyone how happy sonny boy is working for the team he grew up rooting for and how he used to be a ball boy for this team.
